Perhaps. But if you're copy-pasting scripts from other sources into your platform without [being capable of] vetting them, then it fundamentally undermines the security of the platform.

Being very excited about another Rust web framework, I've been trying to use this for the last few days. While the basics seem very interesting, there's a few large stumbling blocks ready for anyone who might want to "get ser

Excellent! I'm glad to see that this is on the roadmap :)

In this vein, one thing I'm not seeing (although I haven't finished reading the "book" yet) is built-in CSRF protection. While not difficult to implement correctly yourself, I've found that applications written on f

Visiting the link you post would indeed have uncovered this particular problem in just a few moments, but doing due diligence means a whole load of other checks as well. It is very cheap to verify that a problem exists if you already know w

My guess is that it's because running the check costs money. Doing checks after going through the show means paying for fewer checks because you don't need to check people who don't get picked. Also, you get to air people who

Serious question: do any "real" web applications which allow you to upload images not re-encode the image before saving it to disk? I thought this was industry standard. There's a whole host of issues associated with not doin

What you are describing is correct behavior for Ajax: an "origin" is defined by the domain/protocol/port tuple, and so http://www.example.com and https://www.example.com are the same origin. What

That's a good point. You would also need to leave your headphones plugged in while not playing sounds (I don't, but others might I suppose). Headphones also make a really crappy mic -- try it out by plugging them into a micropho

The author of the article intended to write "output-only". But even this is not quite right: it's by definition not an input-only jack, but rather a jack capable of both input and output (which the user may think is output-

Given that Trump has not yet come into power, temporal consistency suggests the answer to your question is "no".

I suppose wherever your computer happens to be might count as a temporary office of some sort? Wow, that's brutal.

How is "business nexus" defined? IANAL, but if your project is purely a website, isn't the residence of you as the person pushing code irrelevant?

I'm not a big fan of "one-line proofs". Any proof is a one-liner if you omit the details of how you get from A to B. I'd liken the utility of something like this to that of a "one-line program" where you just d

If it's an internet thing you can incorporate wherever you like. I live in Texas but filed in Wyoming because (a) the forms were super easy, and (b) IIRC the filing fee was $150 and that includes a registered agent.

I think people are disagreeing with you because the parent comment is referring to Linode platform security and not the security of the individual VPSes -- which is a valid point. The security of your individual VPS depends, to a certain de

Ah, you're right! Thank you for the correction. It's $10 and $5, I shall edit accordingly.

Indeed - it's always good to be aware of these things. I've been around for most of them and I am still very happy to use them, but of course your own perspective may differ.

If "$10 / month" counts as cheap in your book, check out a Linode VPS. I've been using them for a couple years now, and I have been extremely satisfied (although I've upgraded to a beefier VPS as my project has grow

I love Rust with a passion, but in all fairness it does not make tiny binaries. On my system, hello world in C is 6.5k, hello world in Rust is 805k (124 times bigger). After running 'strip' on the binaries it's a little bet

I love that mechanic. I think it's a lot more in the forefront with things like software that gets auto-updated, where the publisher pushes an unfortunate patch, or fails to follow through on a promise which was previously given the be

I think this is a slightly different issue, which first entered widespread public discussion in the SSD market. Basically Kingston (I think?) and a few others released a new SSD and used very high quality components in them, so that they ex

In the example provided under "White space", I find the first (9-line "bad") example significantly better than the 3-line replacement. I can see in a fraction of a second what the first one does. The second one? 3-4 se
